Looking out the window, seeing the times, culture, and ethnicity become more important now in days than before. As the researcher the most visible ethnic groups in the city of South Houston would be the Hispanic Americans. This ethnic group has the greatest population in the city. According to Gov. Office (2008), "South Houston grew rapidly between the 1940's and the 1960's." The population at this time was an approximate of about 7,523 people. At this time the population is of about over 80,000 people. As surprising as it can be the researcher realized that the home in which she is now the owner of was the city hall in 1915. The majority of the populations in this city are Hispanic Americans. If these individuals are Hispanic Americans, who are they and are they how are they similar or different to the researcher? (143)

Appearance of the Hispanic Americans

The Code Enforcement Officer, Tommy Savell, a personal friend of the researcher, is the person with the most knowledge in the City of South Houston. Records show that when this city was established in the early 1900's. This city was then known as Dumont, Texas. Most of the population at this time was White non-Hispanic group. At the present time most of the population is Hispanic Americans. These groups are very similar to the researcher because they are people whose parents have migrated from Mexico. They are mostly light colored skin with dark colored hair. Looking out the window and looking into the mirror there is really not any difference at all. Only that some may be tall as opposing to others being short. In these ethnic groups most individuals have the same background and the same cultures. Most of these individuals are hard workers, catholic, and very motivated to progress in life. The researcher has lived most of her life in this community and has only known to see Hispanic Americans in this community. This is how the communities population at this moment. How will it be in another decade, nobody will know. Communities have a tendency to have the majority of the population to be one ethnic group and years later it will have the majority of another. (220).

Leaders of the Community

Most of the individuals in this town are very nice and understanding. The city has a very nice mayor whom looks out for the city at all times. The city secretary Maricela Garza De Leon is the city secretary and has made it one of her most important goals, to help individuals whom reside in this city. Most of the leaders are very interested and concerned to know that their ethnic groups are well treated and are happy individuals by the time that she finishes helping them. The City of South Houston has many departments in which welcome individuals whom come from other ethnic groups. This community has a small population of Black Americans and Arab Americans. Prejudice people are not to be seen in this town. Discrimination is an act that is not tolerated at any time. (138)

Members of the Community

Most of the individuals tend to give a hand to each other. Rarely will there be a person whom is not capable of doing so. Since most of the members in this community are within the same ethnic group. There is mainly not any problem with the way that the individuals treat each other. For the small population whom are in a different ethnic group. They also hardly have any trouble because this city has mainly kept organization and very strict rules so that these individuals would not have any trouble just because they are different in any way.

Information of text and manuals material

The work manuals and texts are neutral to any ethnic group. If there would be any information pertaining to any specific group there would only be legal problems for them. Legal problems because there cannot or may not be an employer whom shows any type of discrimination towards another individual or group. All work texts are in the English language. If necessary that one of the employees is a Hispanic speaker and does not understand another language other than their own. Then it may be requested as a concern towards this employee to understand the material that is given to them. At this time if the employer gives any difficulties to the employee then this would be considered discrimination towards the employee and the company may be sued. Material may or may not have information about the ethnic group. Most materials are neutral and try to keep if plain and simple for those who may need it.
